Yeah that could be true.

I did a poor / vague job of describing that the blindfold was used inside buildings too. Folks walked with their hand on the shoulder of a guard in front of them from time to time.

Makes sense. That presumably means people don't have to turn their monitors off and shuffle everything off their desks every time an uncleared person has to move through.

IMO It's also probabbly something security can manage and adjust easily.

Like new a policy, fine leave the blindfold on longer.

Broken blindfold, just grab another.

But say truck with a broken blackout window ... can't go onsite.
